PROXY STATEMENT FOR

ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

TO BE HELD ON MARCH 24, 2011

This Proxy Statement relates to the 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of LiveDeal, Inc. (“LiveDeal” or the “Company”). The Annual Meeting will be held on Thursday, March 24, 2011 at 8:00 a.m. local time, at our corporate offices, which are located at 2490 East Sunset Road, Suite 100, Las Vegas, Nevada 89120, or at such other time and place to which the Annual Meeting may be adjourned or postponed. The enclosed proxy is solicited by our Board of Directors (the “Board”). The proxy materials relating to the Annual Meeting are first being mailed to stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting on or about February 3, 2011.

ABOUT THE MEETING

What is the purpose of the Annual Meeting?

At the Annual Meeting, stockholders will act upon the matters outlined in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting and this Proxy Statement, including (i) the election of four directors to our Board; and (ii) the ratification of the appointment of Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2011. In addition, management will report on our most recent financial and operating results and respond to questions from stockholders.

Who is entitled to attend and vote at the Annual Meeting?

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on the record date, January 25, 2011, or their duly appointed proxies, are entitled to receive notice of the Annual Meeting, attend the Annual Meeting and vote the shares that they held on that date at the Annual Meeting or any postponement or adjournment of the Annual Meeting. At the close of business on January 25, 2011, there were issued, outstanding and entitled to vote 613,871 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, each of which is entitled to one vote.

How do I vote?

You may vote on matters to come before the meeting in two ways: (i) you can attend the Annual Meeting and cast your vote in person; or (ii) you can vote by completing, signing and dating the enclosed proxy card and returning it to us via mail or facsimile. If you return the proxy card, you will authorize the individuals named on the proxy card, referred to as the proxy holders, to vote your shares according to your instructions. If you return the proxy card and provide no instructions, you will authorize the proxy holders to vote your shares according to the recommendations of our Board. If your shares are held by your broker in “street name,” you will receive a voting instruction form from your broker or the broker’s agent asking you how your shares should be voted.

What if I vote and then change my mind?

You may revoke your proxy at any time before it is exercised by either (i) filing with our Corporate Secretary a notice of revocation; (ii) sending in another duly executed proxy bearing a later date; or (iii) attending the meeting and casting your vote in person. Your last vote will be the vote that is counted.

How can I get more information about attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person?

The Annual Meeting will be held on Thursday, March 24, 2011 at 8:00 a.m. local time, at our corporate offices, which are located at 2490 East Sunset Road, Suite 100, Las Vegas, Nevada 89120, or at such other time and place to which the Annual Meeting may be adjourned or postponed. For additional details about the Annual Meeting, including directions to the site of the Annual Meeting and information about how you may vote in person if you so desire, please call or email Larry Tomsic, Chief Financial Officer, at (702) 939-0240 or at ltomsic@livedeal.com.

What are the Board’s recommendations?

Unless you give other instructions on your proxy card, the persons named on the proxy card will vote in accordance with the recommendations of our Board, which are described in this Proxy Statement. In summary, our Board recommends a vote FOR election of the nominated slate of directors; and FOR the ratification of Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2011.

With respect to any other matter that properly comes before the meeting, the proxy holders will vote as recommended by our Board or, if no recommendation is given, in their own discretion.

What constitutes a quorum?

The presence at the Annual Meeting, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares on the record date will constitute a quorum, permitting us to conduct our business at the Annual Meeting. Proxies received but marked as abstentions will be included in the calculation of the number of shares considered to be present at the meeting for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present.

What vote is required to approve each item?

Election of Directors. Election of a director requires the affirmative votes of the holders of a plurality of the shares for which votes are cast at a meeting at which a quorum is present. The four persons receiving the greatest number of votes will be elected as directors. Since only affirmative votes count for this purpose, a properly executed proxy marked “WITHHOLD AUTHORITY” with respect to the election of one or more directors will not be voted with respect to the director or directors indicated, although it will be counted for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum. Stockholders may not cumulate votes in the election of directors.

Pursuant to rules approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) brokers are not entitled to use their discretion to vote uninstructed proxies in, among other things, uncontested director elections. In other words, if your shares are held by your broker in “street name” and you do not provide your broker with instructions about how your shares should be voted in connection with this proposal, your shares will not be voted and a “broker non-vote” will result. Therefore, if you desire that your shares be voted in connection with the election of our Board, it is imperative that you provide your broker with voting instructions. If your shares are held by your broker in “street name,” you will receive a voting instruction form from your broker or the broker’s agent asking you how your shares should be voted. Please complete the form and return it in the envelope provided by the broker or agent.

Ratification of Auditors. The ratification of the appointment of Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. as our independent registered public accounting firm will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares for which votes are cast at a meeting at which a quorum is present. A properly executed proxy marked “ABSTAIN” with respect to such matter will not be voted or treated as a vote cast, although it will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present. Accordingly, an abstention will not affect the outcome of this proposal. Brokers are entitled to use their discretion to vote uninstructed proxies with respect to ratification of our independent auditors.

Can I dissent or exercise rights of appraisal?

Under Nevada law, holders of our common stock are not entitled to dissenters’ rights in connection with any of the proposals to be presented at the Annual Meeting or to demand appraisal of their shares as a result of the approval of any of the proposals.

Who pays for this proxy solicitation?

The Company will bear the entire cost of this proxy solicitation, including the preparation, assembly, printing, and mailing of this Proxy Statement, the proxy card and any additional solicitation materials furnished to the stockholders. Copies of solicitation materials will be furnished to brokerage houses, fiduciaries and custodians holding shares in their names that are beneficially owned by others so that they may forward the solicitation material to such beneficial owners.

Where can I access this Proxy Statement and the related materials online?

The Proxy Statement and our Annual Report to Stockholders are available at http://www.cfpproxy.com/6895.

Note About Effects of 1-for-10 Reverse Stock Split Completed on September 7, 2010.

Effective on September 7, 2010, the Company implemented a 1-for-10 reverse stock split with respect to issued and outstanding shares of its common stock. As a result of the reverse stock split, every 10 shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to September 7, 2010 were automatically exchanged for one share of common stock, with any fractional shares resulting from the exchange being rounded up to the nearest whole share. Additionally, the Company’s authorized shares of common stock were reduced to 10,000,000 shares. All share amounts contained in this Proxy Statement have been adjusted to reflect the effects of the 1-for-10 reverse stock split.

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

(Proposal No. 1)

General

LiveDeal’s Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that our Board shall consist of not less than three nor more than nine directors (with the precise number of directors to be established by resolution of the Board), each of whom is elected annually. Currently, there are four members of our Board. Our Board has determined that four directors will be elected at the 2011 Annual Meeting, and has nominated each of the four incumbent directors for re-election. Each director is to be elected to hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders or until his or her successor is elected and qualified. If a director resigns or otherwise is unable to complete his or her term of office, the Board may elect another director for the remainder of the departing director’s term.

The Board has no reason to believe that the nominees will not serve if elected, but if they should become unavailable to serve as a director, and if the Board designates a substitute nominee, the persons named as proxies will vote for the substitute nominee designated by our Board.

Vote Required

If a quorum is present and voting, the four nominees receiving the highest number of votes will be elected to our Board.

BOARD INFORMATION AND DIRECTOR NOMINATION PROCESS

How often did the Board meet during fiscal 2010?

Our Board met 22 times during fiscal 2010, either telephonically or in person, and acted one time by written consent. None of our directors attended fewer than 75% of the meetings of the Board held during the director’s service or of any committee on which the director served during fiscal 2010.

Director Independence

Our Board has affirmatively determined that each of the four current directors nominated for re-election at the 2011 Annual Meeting is “independent” as such term is defined under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(a)(2) and the related rules of the SEC. The Company’s independent directors conduct executive sessions at regularly scheduled meetings as required by NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(b)(2).

How can our stockholders communicate with the Board?

Stockholders and other parties interested in communicating with the Board may do so by writing to Board of Directors, LiveDeal, Inc., 2490 East Sunset Road, Suite 100, Las Vegas, Nevada 89120.

Board Leadership Structure

Following certain changes in the composition of our Board over the past two years, in August 2010, the Board appointed Ms. Bolton to serve as our Lead Director. In that role, Ms. Bolton provides general leadership to the Board at and between meetings, including during executive sessions of the Board in which management does not participate. Kevin A. Hall, our President, Chief Operating Officer and General Counsel (who currently serves as our principal executive officer), is not currently a member of the Board. Although the Board assesses the appropriate leadership structure from time to time in light of internal and external events or developments and reserves the right to make changes in the future, it believes that the current structure, as described in this Proxy Statement, is appropriate at this time given the size and experience of the Board, as well as the background and experience of management.

Board’s Role in Oversight of Risk

Our management is responsible for managing risk and bringing the most material risks facing the Company to the Board’s attention. Our Board has oversight responsibility for the processes established to report and monitor material risks applicable to the Company. The Board also oversees the appropriate allocation of responsibility for risk oversight among the committees of the Board. The Audit Committee plays a central role in overseeing the integrity of the Company’s financial statements and reviewing and approving the performance of the Company’s internal audit function and independent accountants. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee considers risks related to succession planning and considers risk related to the attraction and retention of talent and risks related to the design of compensation programs and arrangements. The Compensation Committee monitors the design and administration of the Company’s compensation programs to ensure that they incentivize strong individual and group performance and include appropriate safeguards to avoid unintended or excessive risk taking by Company employees. The Board does not believe that its process for risk oversight should affect its leadership structure (i.e. whether it may combine the Chairman and CEO roles in the future) because Board committees (comprised entirely of independent directors) play the central role in risk oversight.

What committees has the Board established?

Our Board has an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, and a Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, each of which is a standing committee of the Board.

Audit Committee. The purpose of the Audit Committee is to assist our Board in overseeing (i) the integrity of our Company’s accounting and financial reporting processes, the audits of our financial statements, as well as our systems of internal controls regarding finance, accounting, and legal compliance; (ii) our Company’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements; (iii) the qualifications, independence and performance of our independent public accountants; (iv) our Company’s financial risk; and (v) our Company’s internal audit function. In carrying out this purpose, the Audit Committee maintains and facilitates free and open communication between the Board, the independent public accountants, and our management. Mr. LeClaire (Chairman), Ms. Bolton and Mr. Butler currently serve on the Audit Committee. Each member of the committee satisfies the independence standards specified in Rule 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ Listing Rules and the related rules of the SEC and has been determined by the Board to be “financially literate” with accounting or related financial management experience. The Board has also determined that Mr. LeClaire is an “audit committee financial expert” as defined under SEC rules and regulations, and qualifies as a financially sophisticated audit committee member as required under Rule 5605(c)(2)(A) of the NASDAQ Listing Rules. Our Board has adopted a charter for the Audit Committee, a copy of which is posted on our website at www.livedeal.com. The Audit Committee met four times during fiscal 2010.

Compensation Committee. The purpose of the Compensation Committee is to (i) discharge the Board’s responsibilities relating to compensation of the Company’s directors and executives, (ii) produce an annual report on executive compensation for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement, as necessary, and (iii) oversee and advise the Board on the adoption of policies that govern the Company’s compensation programs, including stock and benefit plans. Messrs. Clarke (Chairman) and LeClaire currently serve on the Compensation Committee. Each member of the committee satisfies the independence standards specified in Rule 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ Listing Rules and the related rules of the SEC. In addition, each of the current members of the Compensation Committee is a “non-employee director” under Section 16 of the Exchange Act and an “outside director” for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Our Board has adopted a charter for the Compensation Committee, a copy of which is posted on our website at www.livedeal.com. The Compensation Committee met two times during fiscal 2010.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation. There were no interlocking relationships between our Company and other entities that might affect the determination of the compensation of our executive officers.

Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee. The purpose of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee is to (i) identify individuals who are qualified to become members of our Board, consistent with criteria approved by the Board, and to select, or to recommend that the Board select, the director nominees for the next annual meeting of stockholders or to fill vacancies on the board; (ii) develop and recommend to the Board a set of corporate governance principles applicable to our Company; and (iii) oversee the evaluation of the Board and our Company’s management. Messrs. Butler (Chairman) and Clarke currently serve on the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee. Each member of the committee satisfies the independence standards specified in Rule 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ Listing Rules and the related rules of the SEC. Our Board has adopted a charter for the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, a copy of which is posted on our website at www.livedeal.com. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee did not meet during fiscal 2010.

What are the procedures of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee in making nominations?

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee establishes and periodically reviews the criteria and qualifications for board membership and the selection of candidates to serve as directors of our Company. In determining whether to nominate a candidate for director, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee considers the following criteria, among others:

the candidate’s integrity and ethical character;

whether the candidate is “independent” under applicable SEC, NASDAQ and other rules;

whether the candidate has any conflicts of interest that would materially impair his or her ability to exercise independent judgment as a member of our Board or otherwise discharge the fiduciary duties owed by a director to LiveDeal and our stockholders;

the candidate’s ability to represent all of our stockholders without favoring any particular stockholder group or other constituency of LiveDeal;

the candidate’s experience (including business experience relevant to LiveDeal and/or its industry), leadership qualities and commitment to devoting the amount of time required to be an active member of our Board and its committees; and

the committee’s desire to nominate directors from diverse business and personal backgrounds (although the Company does not have a specific policy regarding the consideration of diversity in identifying director nominees).

The committee has the authority to retain a search firm to identify director candidates and to approve any fees and retention terms of the search firm’s engagement, although the committee has not recently engaged such a firm.

Although the committee has not specified any minimum criteria or qualifications that each director must meet, the committee conducts its nominating process in a manner designed to ensure that the Board continues to meet applicable requirements under SEC and NASDAQ rules (including, without limitation, as they relate to the composition of the Audit Committee).

Our Board is of the view that the continuing service of qualified incumbents promotes stability and continuity in the boardroom, giving our Company the benefit of the familiarity and insight into our Company’s affairs that its directors have accumulated during their tenure, while contributing to the Board’s ability to work as a collective body. Accordingly, the process of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee for identifying nominees reflects the practice of re-nominating incumbent directors who continue to satisfy the committee’s criteria for membership on the Board, who the committee believes will continue to make important contributions to the Board, and who consent to continue their service on the Board.

What are our policies and procedures with respect to director candidates who are nominated by security holders?

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee will consider director candidates recommended by our stockholders under criteria similar to those used to evaluate candidates nominated by the committee (including those listed above). In considering the potential candidacy of persons recommended by stockholders, however, the committee may also consider the size, duration and any special interest of the recommending stockholder (or group of stockholders) in LiveDeal’s common stock.

Stockholders who desire to recommend a nominee for election to our Board must follow the following procedures:

Recommendations must be submitted to the Company in writing, addressed to our Chief Financial Officer at the Company’s principal headquarters.

Recommendations must include all information reasonably deemed by the recommending stockholder to be relevant to the committee’s consideration, including (at a minimum):

the name, address and telephone number of the potential candidate;

the number of shares of LiveDeal’s common stock owned by the recommending stockholder (or group of stockholders), and the time period for which such shares have been held;

if the recommending stockholder is not a stockholder of record according to the books and records of the Company, a statement from the record holder of the shares (usually a broker or bank) verifying the holdings of the stockholder;

a statement from the recommending stockholder as to whether s/he has a good faith intention to continue to hold the reported shares through the date of LiveDeal’s next annual meeting (at which the candidate would be elected to the Board);

with respect to the recommended nominee:

the information required by Item 401 of Regulation S-K (generally providing for disclosure of the name, address, any arrangements or understandings regarding the nomination and the five-year business experience of the proposed nominee, as well as information about the types of legal proceedings within the past five years involving the nominee);

the information required by Item 403 of Regulation S-K (generally providing for disclosure regarding the proposed nominee’s ownership of securities of LiveDeal); and

the information required by Item 404 of Regulation S-K (generally providing for disclosure of transactions in which LiveDeal was or is to be a participant involving more than $120,000 and in which the nominee had or will have any direct or indirect material interest and certain other types of business relationships with LiveDeal);

a description of all relationships between the proposed nominee and the recommending stockholder and any arrangements or understandings between the recommending stockholder and the nominee regarding the nomination;

a description of all relationships between the proposed nominee and any of LiveDeal’s competitors, customers, suppliers, labor unions or other persons with special interests regarding LiveDeal;

a description of the contributions that the nominee would be expected to make to the Board and the governance of LiveDeal; and

a statement as to whether, in the view of the stockholder, the nominee, if elected, would represent all stockholders and not serve for the purpose of advancing or favoring any particular stockholder or other constituency of LiveDeal.

The nominating recommendation must be accompanied by the consent of the proposed nominee to be interviewed by the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee and other Board members and, if elected, to serve as a director of LiveDeal.

A stockholder nomination must be received by LiveDeal, as provided above, not later than 120 calendar days prior to the first anniversary of the date of the proxy statement for the prior annual meeting.

If a recommendation is submitted by a group of two or more stockholders, the information regarding the recommending stockholders must be submitted with respect to each stockholder in the group (as the term group is defined under SEC regulations).

What is our policy on director attendance at our Annual Meetings?

The Board does not have a formal policy regarding director attendance at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders, but all directors are encouraged to attend. All of our directors who were standing for re-election at our 2010 Annual Meeting attended that meeting.

Certain Legal Proceedings Involving Directors and/or Officers of the Company

On July 16, 2008, Joseph Cunningham, the former Chairman of our Board and the Company’s Audit Committee who remained a director of the Company until February 26, 2009, filed a complaint with the U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (“OSHA”) alleging that the Company and certain members of our Board had engaged in discriminatory employment practices in violation of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002’s statutory protections for corporate whistleblowers when the Board removed him as Chairman on May 22, 2008. In his complaint, Mr. Cunningham asked OSHA to order his appointment as Chief Executive Officer of the Company or, in the alternative, to order his reinstatement as Chairman of the Board. Mr. Cunningham also sought back pay, special damages and litigation costs. On July 16, 2010, Mr. Cunningham attempted to amend his OSHA complaint to include an additional adverse action allegation. On September 20, 2010, OSHA issued a letter informing Mr. Cunningham that as a former board member and alleged prospective interim CEO, he is not considered an “employee” under the relevant statute, which is a required element for his claims. Accordingly, OSHA dismissed Mr. Cunningham’s complaint. On October 20, 2010, Mr. Cunningham filed objections to OSHA’s findings. Mr. Cunningham’s appeal of OSHA’s ruling is currently pending.

The Company’s internal investigation of the matter, which was conducted by a special committee of our Board, determined that Mr. Cunningham’s allegations were without merit.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Overview

The purpose of this Compensation Discussion and Analysis (“CD&A”) is to provide material information about the Company’s compensation philosophy, objectives and other relevant policies and to explain and put into context the material elements of the disclosure that follows in this Proxy Statement with respect to the compensation of our Named Executive Officers. For fiscal 2010, the Company’s Named Executive Officers were:

Kevin A. Hall, President, Chief Operating Officer, General Counsel, and Vice President of Human Resources and Business Development (from October 1, 2009 until September 30, 2010);

Lawrence W. Tomsic, Chief Financial Officer (effective as of January 2, 2010);

Richard F. Sommer, President and Chief Executive Officer (until January 4, 2010); and

Rajeev Seshadri, Chief Financial Officer (until January 2, 2010).

The Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee annually reviews the performance and compensation of the Chief Executive Officer or other principal executive officer (currently, our President and Chief Operating Officer) and the Company’s other executive officers. Additionally, the Compensation Committee reviews compensation of outside directors for service on the Board and for service on committees of the Board, and administers the Company’s stock plans.

Role of Executives in Determining Executive Compensation

The Chief Executive Officer or other principal executive officer (currently, our President and Chief Operating Officer) provides input to the Compensation Committee regarding the performance of the other Named Executive Officers and offers recommendations regarding their compensation packages in light of such performance. The Compensation Committee is ultimately responsible, however, for determining the compensation of the Named Executive Officers, including the Chief Executive Officer or other principal executive officer.

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

The Compensation Committee and the Board believe that the Company’s compensation programs for its executive officers should reflect the Company’s performance and the value created for its stockholders. In addition, we believe the compensation programs should support the goals and values of the Company and should reward individual contributions to the Company’s success. Specifically, the Company’s executive compensation program is intended to:

attract and retain the highest caliber executive officers;

drive achievement of business strategies and goals;

motivate performance in an entrepreneurial, incentive-driven culture;

closely align the interests of executive officers with the interests of the Company’s stockholders;

promote and maintain high ethical standards and business practices; and

reward results and the creation of stockholder value.

Factors Considered in Determining Compensation; Components of Compensation

The Compensation Committee makes executive compensation decisions on the basis of total compensation, rather than on individual components of compensation. We attempt to create an integrated total compensation program structured to balance both short and long-term financial and strategic goals. Our compensation should be competitive enough to attract and retain highly skilled individuals. In this regard, we utilize a combination of between two to four of the following types of compensation to compensate our executive officers:

base salary, which typically increases by 10% each year during the term of their employment agreement (if applicable);

performance bonuses, which may be earned annually depending on the Company’s achievement of pre-established goals;

cash bonuses given at the discretion of the Board; and

equity compensation, consisting of restricted stock and/or stock options.

The Compensation Committee periodically reviews each executive officer’s base salary and makes appropriate recommendations to the Board. Salaries are based on the following factors:

the Company’s performance for the prior fiscal years and subjective evaluation of each executive’s contribution to that performance;

the performance of the particular executive in relation to established goals or strategic plans; and

competitive levels of compensation for executive positions based on information drawn from compensation surveys and other relevant information.

Performance bonuses and equity compensation are awarded based upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee. Restricted stock is granted under the LiveDeal, Inc. Amended and Restated 2003 Stock Plan (the “2003 Stock Plan”) and is priced at 100% of the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Incentive and/or non-qualified stock options are generally granted under the 2003 Stock Plan, as well, with the exercise price of such options set at 100% of the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. These grants are made with a view to linking executives’ compensation to the long-term financial success of the Company.

Use of Benchmarking and Compensation Peer Groups

The Compensation Committee did not utilize any benchmarking measure in fiscal 2010 and traditionally has not tied compensation directly to a specific profitability measurement, market value of the Company’s common stock or benchmark related to any established peer or industry group. Salary increases are based on the terms of the Named Executive Officers’ employment agreements, if applicable, and correlated with the Board’s and the Compensation Committee’s assessment of each Named Executive Officer’s performance. The Company also generally seeks to increase or decrease compensation, as appropriate, based upon changes in an executive officer’s functional responsibilities within the Company. Historically, the Compensation Committee has not used outside consultants in determining the compensation of the Company’s Named Executive Officers, and no such consultants were engaged during fiscal 2010.

Other Compensation Policies and Considerations

The intention of the Company has been to compensate the Named Executive Officers in a manner that maximizes the Company’s ability to deduct such compensation expenses for federal income tax purposes. However, the Compensation Committee has the discretion to provide compensation that is not “performance-based” under Section 162(m) of the Code it determines that such compensation is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. For fiscal 2010, the Company expects to deduct all compensation expenses paid to the Named Executive Officers.

LiveDeal, Inc. Amended and Restated 2003 Stock Plan

During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2002, our stockholders approved the 2002 Employees, Officers & Directors Stock Option Plan (the “2002 Plan”), which was intended to replace our 1998 Stock Option Plan (the “1998 Plan”). The 2002 Plan was never implemented, however, and no options, shares or any other securities were issued or granted under the 2002 Plan. There were 30,000 shares of our common stock authorized for issuance under the 2002 Plan. On June 30, 2003 and July 21, 2003, respectively, our Board and a majority of our stockholders terminated both the 1998 Plan and the 2002 Plan and approved our 2003 Stock Plan. The 30,000 shares of common stock previously allocated to the 2002 Plan were re-allocated to the 2003 Stock Plan.

In April 2004, our stockholders and our Board approved an amendment to the 2003 Stock Plan to increase the aggregate number of shares available thereunder by 20,000 shares in order to have an adequate number of shares available for future grants. At our 2007 Annual Meeting, our stockholders approved an amendment that increased the aggregate number of shares available for issuance under the 2003 Stock Plan to 80,000 shares. At our 2008 Annual Meeting, our stockholders rejected an amendment that would have increased the number of shares available for issuance from 80,000 shares to 110,000 shares. At our 2009 Annual Meeting, our stockholders approved an amendment that increased the aggregate number of shares available for issuance under the 2003 Stock Plan by 60,000 shares, to 140,000 shares in the aggregate.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The SEC rules require us to include in our Proxy Statement a report from the Audit Committee of our Board. The following report concerns the Audit Committee’s activities regarding oversight of our financial reporting and auditing process and does not constitute soliciting material and should not be deemed filed or incorporated by reference into any other filing that we make under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, except to the extent we specifically incorporate this report in such filings.

It is the duty of the Audit Committee to provide independent, objective oversight of our accounting functions and internal controls. The Audit Committee acts under a written charter that sets forth the audit-related functions we are expected to perform. Our functions are to:

serve as an independent and objective party to monitor LiveDeal, Inc.’s financial reporting process and system of internal control structure;

review and appraise the audit efforts of LiveDeal, Inc.’s independent registered public accounting firm; and

provide an open avenue of communication among the independent auditors, financial and senior management, and the Board.

We meet with management periodically to consider the adequacy of the Company’s internal controls and the objectivity of its financial reporting. We discuss these matters with the Company’s independent auditors and with appropriate financial personnel. We regularly meet privately with the independent auditors, who have unrestricted access to the Audit Committee. We also recommend to the Board the appointment of the independent auditors and review periodically their performance and independence from management. Toward that end, we have considered whether the non-audit related services provided by LiveDeal, Inc.’s independent auditors are compatible with their independence. In addition, we review our financing plans and report recommendations to the full Board for approval and to authorize action.

Management of LiveDeal, Inc. has primary responsibility for the Company’s financial statements and the overall reporting process, including its system of internal control structure. The independent auditors (a) audit the annual financial statements prepared by management, (b) express an opinion as to whether those financial statements fairly present LiveDeal, Inc.’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, and (c) discuss with the Company any issues they believe should be raised. Our responsibility is to monitor and review these processes.

It is not our duty or responsibility to conduct auditing or accounting reviews or procedures. We are not employees of LiveDeal, Inc. while serving on the Audit Committee. We are not and we may not represent ourselves to be or to serve as accountants or auditors by profession or experts in the fields of accounting and auditing. Therefore, we have relied, without independent verification; on management’s representation that the financial statements have been prepared with integrity and objectivity and in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and on the representations of the independent auditors included in their report on LiveDeal, Inc.’s consolidated financial statements. Our oversight does not provide us with an independent basis to determine that management has maintained appropriate accounting and financial reporting principles or policies, or appropriate internal controls and procedures designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations. Furthermore, our considerations and discussions with management and the independent auditors do not assure that the Company’s consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, that the audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements has been carried out in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards or that LiveDeal, Inc.’s independent accountants are, in fact, “independent.”

This year, we reviewed LiveDeal, Inc.’s audited consolidated financial statements and met with both management and Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C., LiveDeal, Inc.’s independent auditors, to discuss those consolidated financial statements. Management has represented to us that the consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We have received from and discussed with Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. the written disclosure and the letter required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions with Audit Committees). These items relate to that firm’s independence from LiveDeal, Inc. We also discussed with Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. any matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended (Communication with Audit Committees).

In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, we recommended to the Board that LiveDeal, Inc.’s audited consolidated financial statements should be included in LiveDeal, Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

Percentage of ownership is based on 613,871 shares of common stock outstanding on January 25, 2011.

SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers, directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC.

Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms filed with the SEC and on written representations that no other reports were required, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our directors, executive officers and our ten percent or greater stockholders were complied with during the fiscal year that ended September 30, 2010, with the exception of the following reports:

Name	Form	Transaction Date	Due Date	Actual Filing Date
Richard Sommer	4	10/29/2009	11/8/2009	11/19/2009
Rajesh Navar	4	1/19/2010	1/21/2010	2/23/2010

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In accordance with its charter, the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board reviews and recommends for approval all related party transactions (as such term is defined for purposes of Item 404 of Regulation S-K). During fiscal 2010, the Company did not enter into or otherwise participate in any related party transactions requiring disclosure under Item 404 of Regulation S-K.

STOCKHOLDER NOMINATIONS AND OTHER PROPOSALS

To be considered for inclusion in our proxy materials relating to our 2012 Annual Meeting, stockholder nominations or other proposals must be received at our principal executive offices by October 6, 2011, which is 120 calendar days prior to the anniversary of the mailing date of the Company’s 2011 Proxy Statement. All stockholder proposals must be in compliance with applicable laws and regulations, including the provisions of Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act, in order to be considered for possible inclusion in the proxy statement and form of proxy for the 2012 Annual Meeting.

Pursuant to Section 2.7 of the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws, any notice of a stockholder nomination or other proposal submitted outside of the process prescribed by Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act (i.e., proposals that are not to be included in the Company’s proxy statement and form of proxy) received after October 6, 2011 will be considered untimely. To be in proper written form, a stockholder’s notice must set forth, as to each matter such stockholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting, (i) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting, (ii) the name and record address of such stockholder, (iii) the class or series and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation that are owned beneficially or of record by such stockholder, (iv) a description of all arrangements or understandings between such stockholder and any other person or persons (including their names) in connection with the proposal of such business by such stockholder and any material interest of such stockholder in such business and (v) a representation that such stockholder intends to appear in person or by proxy at the annual meeting to bring such business before the meeting.

OTHER MATTERS

As of the date of this Proxy Statement, our Board does not intend to present at the Annual Meeting any matters other than those described herein and does not presently know of any matters that will be presented by other parties. If any other matter is properly brought before the meeting for action by stockholders, proxies in the enclosed form returned to us will be voted in accordance with the recommendation of the Board or, in the absence of such a recommendation, in accordance with the judgment of the proxy holder.

ELECTRONIC DELIVERY OF FUTURE ANNUAL MEETING MATERIALS

We are offering our stockholders the opportunity to consent to receive our future proxy materials and annual reports electronically by providing the appropriate information when voting via the Internet. Electronic delivery could save us a significant portion of the costs associated with printing and mailing annual meeting materials, and we hope that our stockholders find this service convenient and useful. If you consent and we elect to deliver future proxy materials and/or annual reports to you electronically, then we will send you a notice (either by electronic mail or regular mail) explaining how to access these materials but will not send you paper copies of these materials unless you request them. We may also choose to send one or more items to you in paper form despite your consent to receive them electronically. Your consent will be effective until you revoke it by terminating your registration at the website www.investordelivery.com if you hold shares at a brokerage firm or bank participating in the ADP program, or by contacting our transfer agent, Registrar and Transfer Company, if you hold shares in your own name.

By consenting to electronic delivery, you are stating to us that you currently have access to the Internet and expect to have access in the future. If you do not have access to the Internet, or do not expect to have access in the future, please do not consent to electronic delivery because we may rely on your consent and not deliver paper copies of future annual meeting materials. In addition, if you consent to electronic delivery, you will be responsible for your usual Internet charges (e.g., online fees) in connection with the electronic delivery of the proxy materials and annual report.
